Must-Visit Destinations for a Memorable Indian Holiday

Must-visit destinations in India

India, with its rich history and diverse culture, offers a plethora of destinations that are perfect for a memorable holiday. Whether you are an art enthusiast, a history buff, or simply a traveler looking for a unique experience, India has something to offer everyone. In this article, we will take you on a virtual tour of some of the must-visit destinations in India that will leave you awestruck and craving for more.

Best holiday packages from India

Planning a holiday can be overwhelming, especially when you are exploring a country as vast and diverse as India. To make your travel experience hassle-free and enjoyable, it is recommended to opt for holiday packages that cater to your specific interests and preferences. India offers a wide range of holiday packages, ensuring that every traveler finds something suitable. From luxurious vacations in the hills to adventurous escapes in the wilderness, there are countless options to choose from. Let's explore some of the best holiday packages from India that promise to make your vacation unforgettable.

Indian culture and heritage

India is a land of vibrant culture and rich heritage, steeped in thousands of years of history. The country's cultural diversity is reflected in its art, music, dance, cuisine, and festivals. Exploring the Indian culture and heritage is like embarking on a journey through time, where traditions are preserved and celebrated with great zeal. To truly understand and appreciate the essence of India, it is essential to immerse yourself in its cultural treasures. In this section, we will delve into the various facets of Indian culture and heritage, showcasing the incredible wealth that awaits you in this captivating country.

India is a treasure trove of architectural marvels, ancient temples, majestic palaces, and intricate artwork. The Taj Mahal in Agra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is undoubtedly the most iconic symbol of India's architectural prowess. This magnificent mausoleum, built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, is a testament to eternal love and a must-visit destination for all those visiting India. The intricate marble inlay work, the serene gardens, and the romantic ambiance make it a truly mesmerizing experience.

Another architectural wonder that should not be missed is the ancient city of Hampi in Karnataka. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to the ruins of the Vijayanagar Empire and showcases the grandeur of a bygone era. The elaborate carvings on the stone temples and palaces transport you back in time and give you a glimpse into the architectural genius of the past.

India's culture is incomplete without exploring its spiritual side. Varanasi, situated on the banks of the sacred river Ganges, is one of the oldest inhabited cities in the world and the holiest of the seven sacred cities in Hinduism. The ghats (steps leading down to the river) along the Ganges are a sight to behold, as pilgrims perform their daily rituals and offer prayers to the divine. Taking a boat ride on the Ganges during sunrise or sunset is a surreal experience that will stay with you forever.

As we move towards the southern part of India, the state of Kerala beckons with its tranquil backwaters and lush green landscapes. The backwaters, a network of canals, lakes, and lagoons, offer a unique experience of serene beauty. Cruising through the backwaters on a traditional houseboat, locally known as a 'kettuvallam,' allows you to soak in the tranquility and experience the rustic charm of rural Kerala.

For wildlife enthusiasts, India has an abundance of national parks and wildlife sanctuaries. One such gem is Ranthambore National Park in Rajasthan, known for its population of royal Bengal tigers. Embarking on a safari in Ranthambore gives you the opportunity to spot these majestic creatures in their natural habitat and experience the thrill of being up close with one of the world's most iconic big cats.

No journey through the cultural and heritage delights of India can be complete without indulging in its culinary treasures. Each region in India boasts a unique culinary tradition, with flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. From the spicy street food of Delhi to the aromatic biryanis of Hyderabad and the delectable seafood of the coastal states, Indian cuisine offers a gastronomic adventure like no other.

In conclusion,

India is a country that mesmerizes and enchants with its rich culture and heritage. From awe-inspiring architectural wonders to spiritual experiences, and picturesque landscapes to tantalizing culinary delights, India has it all. So, if you are looking for a truly memorable holiday, look no further than the diverse and enchanting destinations that India has to offer.

Part 4 

The past two months for you had been busy, you had earned yourself a promotion and as a result you had started to build a team around you to support the work you had been bringing onboard. It meant some long nights, to the point where you had let your social life drop off in order to make it through the stressful period at work. Your boss had come up to you late November to check in on how you were doing. They saw that you had been focused to the point where your mental health had started to slip and took actions into their own hands. 

Your inbox slowly became littered with flight deal and holiday package emails sent through from your boss. You ignored them knowing that you’d holiday when it quietened down but your boss did not take no for an answer. The Holiday brochures were getting left on your desk, and now came directly from travel agencies. You huffed as you clicked unsubscribe from what felt like the hundredth email, stood up, looking over the desk partition to meet a pair of sheepish eyes in front of you. 

“I get the picture, I’ll go on holiday!!” your boss only looked at you with a smug expression, knowing deep down you needed the break, but hating to admit that others had seen that need as much as you had let it slip past. 

You originally intended on only taking the typical Christmas shut down period, however, at the constant insistence from your boss you conceded and ended up booking majority of December promising that if when you returned you were not relaxed and yourself again, you’d take another few weeks off before work picked up again in February.

Your month long break however did not mean that you stopped working until you landed in Australia… at least that’s what you tried to tell yourself as you opened your emails seeing the list that had piled up on your trip to the airport this morning.

Your flight was longer than what you would normally take, opting to take the cheapest flight you could find in order to have a bit more freedom to spend while home. That coupled with the fact it was peak travel time, you conceded you did what you had to do. As a result you had 2 stopovers instead of the direct flight you preferred to take. You had made your way to the gate at Schipol, only to see that your first connecting flight had been pushed back, giving you an extra 2 hours to kill instead of 30 minutes, making your already long trip home even longer. 

You made your way to the airline lounge, after sending your sister a quick message to email across a lounge pass for your airline, waiting out the front while she sent a response. One good thing about living so far away from the rest of the world is the points that had banked up after years of travel forward and back across the country. Walking through the frosted glass doors, you were met with a relatively empty lounge space, comfortable booths and arms chairs scattered around in twos and threes. You searched for an available power plug so you could get a few more hours of work done, telling yourself when you landed in Singapore you would not work on that stopover. 

You found a vacant one by the windows, tucked away in a corner, far away from the bar and food, thanking your lucky stars. You could make use of the quiet time and space before squishing in the middle row which you knew awaited you for the 13 hour flight up ahead. You pulled on your noise cancelling headphones, set an alarm on your phone for 20 minutes before your flight was scheduled to board and pulled your hoodie over your head, blocking out the room surrounding you.

Carlos on the other hand did not find his flight delayed. He had intentionally arrived at the airport early in the hopes of going unnoticed, arriving a full 5 hours before he was scheduled to leave. His family had made the trip earlier within the week taking a direct flight, whereas he had taken some time in Amsterdam spending a week off first with Lando to fully unwind and begin the summer break , his week full of partying each night. Two of the five hours had already passed when he made his way to the bar to pick up a snack and some more water. Turning away from the bar, he made his way to where he was previously seated, his eyes catching some orange in his peripheral. He recognised that orange, it was the papaya of his team, McLaren, however it wasn’t the colour that held his attention. The orange was located on the side of a pull up hoodie, his “CS55” clearly standing out the nape of the neck against the dark grey of the rest of the sweater. 

He would recognise that hoodie anywhere. In any other circumstance, seeing his initials and racing number on clothing would indicate a fan, resulting in him either having an awkward interaction and photo, or turning in the other direction, hoping that no one had seen him. This however was his own jumper which was made specially for him when he signed on to McLaren in 2019 as a welcome gift to the team. He knew that there was only one of them and that he had given away a few months ago to a shivering girl, late at night to keep her shielded from the biting evening chill. He had paid the price for keeping you warm, ending up with a cold that had started the next morning and refused to leave which saw him reprimanded by the team for threatening to impact the next race. Suzuka however ended up being a good result for him, qualifying seventh and finishing fifth. Which he attributed to you helping keep his spirits high despite barely being able to breath during the race weekend.

He hesitated, unsure if you would remember him after leaving you at your doorstep. 

That night walking back to his apartment, arms crossed shielding himself from the wind, he had pulled out his phone , and started to type out a message to you but decided not to send it, thinking at the time that the six or so hours you had spent talking were perfect enough. He didn’t want to ruin the illusion he had made by messaging you, only to be ghosted. He pulled his phone out of his pocket, scrolling to where you name was saved, pressing the message he saw what he had started to type out in those early morning hours.

He didn’t have the courage to send that text that night, but seeing his hoodie in the airport of all places where he had three hours left to wait patiently, he saw as the opportunity representing itself to him. He stopped a few feet away from you, close enough to see your hair poking out of the hoodie, and his initials stitched on the left arm. He took a deep breathe in, closing the remaining distance, lowering himself slowly into the empty seat directly opposite you.

You were enjoying the warmth on your face from the sun that had finally broken through the thick cloud cover. Mid typing you were interrupted by a figure coming closer and sitting down in front of you. You had seen someone hovering out of the corner of your eye but had dismissed it as one of the lounge attendants who periodically roamed around the room, cleaning and refilling people’s drinks. The person however had not turned but walked towards you, and you had keep your eyes trained on the screen, hoping that your lack of attention would be a signal enough that you were not to be disturbed.

Your body language had obviously failed in communicating that silent message, you looking up from the screen only to see a face you had not thought about in months.

“Nice to see my hoodie is getting some use” he said to you. You looked down and knew what he was talking about. Your face flushed, in all honesty it ws the only clean hoodie you had left, with your piles of laundry not taken care of before you packed for your trip. His hoodie had been sitting on your dresser counter since that night, you too scared to wear it again opting to keep the memory of that night untainted. You had specifically picked this one to wear for the flight, despite in it being the only one not dirty, so that when you landed at home you could tell your sister all about the guy you had met back in October, the jumper acting as a prompt for the conversation. 

“No point me not wearing it, you of anyone would know how soft it is” you teased back, Carlos’s face lighting up a little more as you not only remembered him, but answered with the smile he had come to miss. 

“So…where are you flying to?” Carlos cursed internally for how nervous he was sounding. He had practiced what he would text you but hadn’t thought he’d see you in person before he had messaged. 

“I’m flying home for the Christmas break, time to see some family, get sunburnt, eat my weight in cherries and peaches” you pulled out your boarding pass handing it over to him. “Flight has been delayed so I have a few hours to wait until I go to Singapore then one more flight for Aus” He handed your boarding pass back  as you asked “Where are you going?”

“Mexico, I’m going with my family for a holiday before flying back to Europe for Christmas”

And so you picked up where you left off, covering everything that had happened over the past few months as well as both of your plans for your holidays. Your phone alarm interrupted Carlos in the middle of explaining his last few days in Amsterdam, signalling you needed to make your way to the gate lest you miss your flight. You turn the alarm to snooze, giving you another 5 mins before you really had to go. Reaching for the power cord and packing up your laptop you asked Carlos “Do you have instagram or WhatsApp? I never asked you last time, but I want to hear all about Mexico, and see if I should go there next” You didn’t say that you wanted to keep talking to him and to stalk every picture he ever posted, he couldn’t know that you were more invested that you really wanted to be after only seeing him twice. You unlocked your phone, handing it to Carlos not giving a chance to say no before adding “Add me on insta and put your contact in” your fingers grazed his and earned a few quicker heartbeats from him. 

Carlos, like practicing what he’d text you, had also prepared for this moment within two different scenarios. If you had found out who he was, he would just give you his number to talk, but if, like now, you still saw him as just Carlos, he would give you his private insta, one that he kept only for his closest friends and family, affording him a small slice of privacy that he clung to desperately as each year passed. You hadn’t brought up him as a driver, so he typed in his profile, clicking “Follow”, before switching to WhatsApp and adding his number. Carlos clicked the camera button within the chat window, took a quick low angle selfie and hit send, exiting the app and locking the phone screen. 

You had finished winding the power cord and packed your headphones into your carry-on, ready to leave. Carlos handed back your phone with a “Safe flight, let me know when you land” Taken a back with the concern he expressed to you, you pocketed your phone turned to leave. You’d taken a few steps before turning, calling back loud enough so he could hear you “I’m glad I ran into you again” and with a smile you picked up your pace knowing you has less than 15 minutes to make it to you flight. 

You barely made it to your gate in time. Handing your boarding pass to the attendant, they directed you to your seat, you pushing your carryon in the overhead bins, before settling yourself in-between two other passengers who looked irritated at the fact the middle seat was not free, but now occupied. Before their irritation could rub off onto you, your phone buzzed again, with the name “Carlos” lighting up your screen. You clicked open the message and your phone screen was filled with the cheesiest grin slapped across Carlos’ face. That however was not the message that had just been received by your phone. The message read, ‘So you know it’s me”. You sent back a voice note repeating his words back to him, hitting send. You saw the attendant start to make their way down the aisles of the plane, getting passengers to open their window shades and put away their electronics for take-off. Before they reached your row, you switched over to Instagram to accept the following request sitting in your inbox. You had expected to be greeted by a profile with an equally cheesy selfie as the request but instead you were greeted by the most suspicious profile, a grey profile pic, with the user name a set of repeating “cs”. Had you not given Carlos your phone for him to follow his own account, you would have deleted the request, but benefit of the doubt, you hit “Confirm”, clicking on the profile. Here you were greeted by the man whose hoodie you currently wore, seeing his most recent post a compilation of Dutch buildings, with the last photo of the set him eating a Stroop waffle. 

The flight attendant had reached your row, asking you to switch off your phone. With a quick double tap you liked the post and turned your phone to aeroplane mode settling for the next 13 hour flight.

Carlos had watched you walk away from him again, however this time he could at least watch you from afar through your posts. He had rectified his lack of courage by stepping up to talk to you and he was glad as he did. The two hours went by so quickly, he was so engrossed in the conversation that he hadn’t touched his water, now warm in his hand. The lounge had remained empty while he was talking to you by the window, his bag where he had left it. He still had an hour left before his own flight, which he planned on scrolling through your Instagram to pass the time. However, you had yet to accept his friend request. 

He quickly went through his own profile, archiving any embarrassing posts when he first started his account as well as hiding any that had a mention of racing. His number of pictures dropped quite significantly with the racing photos removed, leaving only those of him with his friends and family either on holiday or at friends birthdays. He knew that most of his life was spent around cars, but seeing it reflected in his newly edited Instagram solidified how much of himself he was trying to keep from you. He knew he was going to get some questions about why he had suddenly cleaned up his page and made a mental note to bring it up to his family while on holiday. 

He had just set his phone down on the coffee table by his seat when the screen lit up with your name against a WhatsApp notification. He swiped open, and you had responded with an audio note. Connecting his AirPods he hit play, hearing your voice repeat his words back to him. He hit the microphone to respond, again repeating to you that you should message him when you land, and he will do the same when he gets to Mexico. He exited WhatsApp, switching back to Instagram, waiting on your profile, refreshing it to see if you had accepted his request. On the fourth refresh, the screen changed, your grid becoming visible. 

Your profile couldn’t have been more similar to his if you had planned it. Apart from the difference in number of pictures, yours was mostly you on holidays as well. You were smiling with your friends but the majority of your pictures were you with your sister. By the amount that the two of you were photographed together he could tell that she was even more important in your life than you had let on. The only other difference in your account to his was that every few pictures of friends were broken up with a screen shot of your sharing a song to your page. 

Perfect Carlos thought, typing each song you had shared into his Spotify, to kill the time he would listen to each of them to get to see you a little better. The playlist ended up being 46 songs long and served as his main source of content for the wait for his flight as well as the short flight across the Atlantic. Knowing his flight was much shorter than yours, he hit play and started to listen to the variety you had shared. With you as well listening to those songs which you had on your own playlist to keep you occupied for your flight. Again you were both in sync with each other already, a bond forming that both of you were solidifying slowly with each interaction.

Chapter 21/57 Word count: 4.3k Summary: Feelings come to the surface in Suzuka

Thursday 5th October – Suzuka Circuit

The previous night’s rain had finally cleared around mid-morning, leaving an overcast sky and cool air over the circuit. But none of that had done anything to dampen the spirits of the thousands of fands that had descended on the track – by far making it one of the best attended media days of the season. As well as having a reputation for being one of the best circuits on the calendar, Suzuka was also known for having the most enthusiastic spectators. Sophie had already lost count of the amount of hand painted flags and replica race suits helmets she’d seen people wear between the entrance gates and the fan zones.

“You know,” Richard stuffed his hands in his coat pockets as they left the press pen, the first part of Sophie’s packed schedule ticked off the list. “I had a really nice time showing you and Vanessa round Singapore.”

“So did we.” Sophie replied with a bright smile.

“Well, now that your contract’s signed, I wondered if you wanted to make it a regular thing? Sightseeing, food at the hawker centre afterwards…” Richard trailed off, scratching behind his ear and looking down at the drying ground. Sophie linked her right arm through Richard’s left which immediately caught his attention.

“I absolutely would. Vanessa too.” She said with a definitive nod. A wide, relieved smile made its way across Richard’s face.

“Does this mean we’re like a packaged set now, the three of us?”

Sophie had to admit that the more the season went on the less Richard felt like her press officer, and more like an older brother. At the very least, she thought of him as an incredibly dear friend.

“I’m afraid so, yes.”

Richard threw his head back and grinned before patting Sophie’s hand as they approached McLaren’s assigned hospitality unit that stood directly opposite the entrance to the garage.

“This is the part where you’re supposed to say that you’ve always wanted sisters.” Sophie half-joked.

Richard instead chose to pull a mock grimace before saying that he was just messing with her with a small laugh. Sophie just screwed her face up at her press officer and lightly hit him on the arm before going to check her watch. She stopped walking so abruptly that Richard stumbled over his feet.

“How long do I have before the engineers meeting?” She quickly glanced up from her watch.

“Ten minutes,” Richard said cautiously, and he realised what Sophie was up to right as she went to speak.

“Can I go through and see if the pitlane walk is still going on? Just to say hello to people since they’ve had to spend all morning in the rain.” Because of the earlier bad weather the pitlane walk, which people paid an arm and a leg to get tickets for, had been delayed by a couple of hours. Sophie just wanted to do what she could to make it up to people.

Richard fixed Sophie with a firm stare, and let out a long sigh.

“I will absolutely pull my weight around if it looks like you’re going to be late.”

“Well I wouldn’t expect anything less from you.” Sophie playfully elbowed him in the side as they walked into the garage, and could just about make out the slow-moving crowd of people looking around and taking pictures as they reached the end of the passageway.

As Sophie greeted her mechanics a few excited murmurs started to bubble from the spectators, who were kept on the other side of the pit boxes by temporary barriers and a scattering of security guards. “Oh no I don’t have a-” Sophie was cut off by Richard silently pulling a sharpie out of his coat pocket. “Pen.”

“I know, I’m good at my job.” Richard smirked and followed Sophie out into the pitlane.

The excited murmurs had turned into moderate cheers and some people even calling out Sophie’s name. She looked into as many faces as she could, thanking them all for coming down, apologising for the weather, and saying that she hoped they would all still have a great weekend. As Sophie moved along the barrier she signed caps and flags, smiled for selfies and was given an armful of small gifts.

“Did you make these? They’re beautiful.” Sophie remarked at a set of three beaded bracelets she’d been given, one each for herself, Richard and Vanessa. The beads on Sophie’s bracelet were in her helmet colours while Richard and Vanessa’s were in McLaren orange and blue, all of them featuring their initials and on Sophie’s bracelet the number 16. She slipped the bracelet on above her watch and the macrame bracelet Luke’s daughter had made. Richard, who looked quite stunned by the gesture, put his bracelet on quite gently. “We’ll make sure Vanessa gets her one, I promise.”

With her arms full of gifts, Sophie dutifully followed Richard out of the pitlane and back towards the team hospitality unit after five minutes. So long as she went straight from her driver room to the engineer’s office – she would be on time for the engineers briefing.

“Sophie!” Both her and Richard whipped their heads round in the direction of a friendly voice, and they both sighed in relief when they saw Benedikt instead of a journalist walk towards them.

“Hey Ben.” Sophie couldn’t help it when she greeted him with a bright smile that was instantly returned.

“You’re popular.” He gestured to the bundle of small plush toys, parcels and envelopes in her arms.

“A chunk of them are for James actually. But I need to go, I have a meeting.”

“Ah sure, I’ll see you later?” He asked it as a question, as opposed to a general statement. Sophie nodded in reply and walked with Richard into the large marquee that McLaren were calling home for the week.

Friday 6th October

“I know I shouldn’t say it but I’m really starting to hate that bloody car.” Chris pinched the bridge of his nose with a small groan as the hotel lift ascended to the eighth floor. Free practice had been a mixed bag for McLaren, the MCL23 was being its usual temperamental self and not doing what the drivers or engineers wanted. Sophie was starting to wonder how on Earth she’d managed to do so well in China and Hungary.

“As they say, tomorrow’s another day,” Leena huffed from the corner with her arms folded across her chest. “And it could still somehow be worse.” No one was really sure how, but Sophie, Chris and Vanessa all nodded in agreement anyway.

Chris and Leena said goodnight when they got off on the eighth floor with weak smiles and bleary eyes. Almost everyone that needed to had stayed late at the track to look over the data from practice so they could tackle things head on tomorrow. Even though everyone knew deep down that there was only so much time they could find.

“Get some rest, I’ll come get you for breakfast in the morning.” Vanessa patted Sophie’s shoulder as she said goodnight before going into her room. Sophie’s room was a long walk down the hallway and she let out a small yawn on the way, suddenly feeling just how heavy her backpack was on her shoulders. She barely noticed Benedikt almost walking into her as he came out a stairwell. Red Bull clearly hadn’t felt the need to put in as late a shift at the track, given how Ben was dressed in a casual t-shirt and jeans.

“Sophie, hi.” He looked Sophie up and down and put two and two together. “You just got back?”

Sophie hummed in reply. “My room’s this way so…” She pointed down the hallway and took half a step in that direction. “Unless there was something else?”

Ben bounced up and down on his toes and stuffed his hands in his pockets as his cheeks flushed a soft shade of pink.

“I was just wondering if we could have that talk, about how I owe you dinner.”

“Oh,” Sophie’s look of surprise quickly turned into a lazy smile. “Alright then.”

They walked side by side down the hallway and didn’t say much past asking how the other person was. When they reached Sophie’s room she hovered her hand over the door handle.

“I can’t do dinner tonight though, I ate at the track before I left.”

“That’s alright.” Ben’s hands were still stuffed in his pockets. “I’d just came from the dining room, I pressed the wrong button on the lift and just decided to take the stairs.”

Sophie half-snorted as he pulled her keycard out of her pocket and opened the door to her room, quickly stepping inside to allow Ben to follow. She flicked on the light switch and hung the do not disturb sign outside before quietly shutting the door behind her.

“Although, I probably owe you a coffee.” Sophie said tentatively as she took off her backpack and set it down by her feet. Benedikt let out an amused hum, having not forgotten the real reason why Sophie had invited him to her room back in Yeongam.

“Will I get to drink it this time?” He asked with a cheeky grin.

Sophie’s cheeks flushed a bright red as she glanced down at the floor.

“Help yourself I need to get changed.”

Sophie’s hotel room for the week was much smaller compared to the suites of various sizes she’d found herself in so far during the year. As such the only private place to get changed in was the bathroom, where she shed her team gear and pulled on an old Northampton Saints rugby shirt before stepping back out.

“You still take one sugar right?” Benedikt asked, his back to the bathroom door.

“Yeah, thanks.” Sophie hung her team jacket up in the small wardrobe and folded up her t-shirt to deal with later.

As Sophie looked around the room she quickly realised there wasn’t anywhere to sit and still have a comfortable gap between someone. The end of the double bed was just too far away from the small two-seater sofa that while was very comfortable could only fit two people if they were joined at the hip. Maybe that was why it was called a love seat.

Sophie sat down on the left side of the sofa, and a steaming cup of tea was placed in front of her seconds later.

A sudden but surprisingly comfortable silence fell between them as Benedikt contemplated where to sit. Eventually he came to the same conclusion as Sophie and took the remaining spot on the sofa. If Sophie had to guess she would say there was a maximum of five centimetres between them. She got another whiff of his cologne again as he sat down.

Eventually Benedikt took a long sip of what looked like coffee, and gently set his cup down on the tiny coffee table so he could properly turn to look at Sophie. One hand rested on his crossed over shin while his other elbow was propped on the back of the sofa.

“You’re still wearing your bracelets.” He said with a small smile, gesturing to Sophie’s right wrist.

As she had promised to Luke’s daughter at Silverstone, Sophie had worn her orange and blue knotted bracelet at every single race weekend since then. And she had no idea how much time had gone into the beaded bracelet she’d been given yesterday, but she appreciated it all the same. Even Richard was still wearing his. Truthfully Sophie counted herself lucky to have as many fans as she did, and she didn’t want to disappoint them.

“That’s why I like you. You care so much about everything.” His voice was soft but almost dripping with sincerity. “I never wanted you to be just a one night stand-”

“Part of that’s my fault.” Sophie cut him off and nervously tugged at her ear as she glanced down at the ground. Benedikt let out a small sigh.

“What’s the saying… it takes two to tango?”

Sophie half snorted another laugh and chewed on her bottom lip.

“Well,” Benedikt drew in a long breath, and for a brief moment it felt like everything slowed down to a near stop as for better or worse Sophie found herself glued to Ben’s eyes. “If we just have one dinner, at your place maybe, and you want to stay friends after then that’s fine.” He paused to gulp, said the word but, and the rest of the sentence remained unspoken but lingered in the air all around them.

Sophie had just assumed that the way Ben felt about her was surface level, she’d ever considered the possibility of it being any deeper than that. And it being mutual.

In an ideal word she wouldn’t have been dealing with this the night before qualifying, but she had to glance down at her hands as Benedikt didn’t look like he was taking everything in his stride either.

Sophie always wondered if it would she would ever be so lucky as to find the kind of love her parents had. Mark and Mary were devoted to each other in every sense of the word, and utterly steadfast in dealing with whatever challenges they or the family faced together. They had their disagreements and the occasional argument like most couples, but every time they chose to work through it and come out the other side that little bit stronger. And they would always be there to make the other person a strong cup of tea after a rough day. Sophie thought she had that with Tom, but the fact she ran away suggested otherwise.

No, it wasn’t running away, she told herself. Sophie hadn’t been the one to turn down the proposal.

“My last-” Sophie cut herself off as her voice cracked ever so slightly. Factually, Tom had been her only proper relationship, as well as her most recent one. “Things didn’t end very well with my ex and-”

“If this is too much… if you want me to go, then I’ll leave.” Ben said quickly, looking Sophie up and down with a worried look on his face.

“That’s just it,” Sophie sighed, and some part of her brain shot out her free hand and rested it on Benedikt’s knee. “I don’t. I’d really like it if you stayed.”

A small, soft smile made its way onto Benedikt’s face as he rested a hand on top of Sophie’s and gave it a gentle squeeze. And another surprisingly comfortable silence fell over the small room again.

“Why don’t we do things properly and watch a movie or something?” Benedikt said eventually, lazily knotting their fingers together as he spoke. Sophie set her undrunk tea down on the coffee table and squeezed Ben’s hand back, briefly wondering how they had jumped from friends to this so quickly. Even though she wanted to have nights like in Yeongam, but also days like Silverstone too.

She let out a small, wistful sigh. “I’d like to do things properly.”

Despite choosing the film Sophie almost fell asleep in the latter minutes of GoldenEye, to the point where she almost didn’t catch Benedikt saying he was going to quickly grab some things from his room and come back. He returned about ten minutes later with a full rucksack containing pyjamas, a fresh change of clothes plus a Red Bull team shirt and toiletries. She pondered, as she climbed into bed after brushing her teeth, if this was his way of continuing to make things up to her.

As they kissed each other goodnight, Sophie also started to think about what on Earth she was getting herself into. But those thoughts were quickly dismayed when Ben gently brushed a thumb across her cheek and wrapped his arms around her as they drifted off to sleep.

Because maybe, things between them would end up turning out alright.

Sunday 8th October

Through all his years in F1 James could still count on one hand the number of times he’d physically felt nervous before a race. For some reason, as he let out a long exhale and still felt some mild tension in his shoulders, he reluctantly added Japan 2023 to the list.

Maybe it was because he and Sophie had barely scraped into the top 10 in qualifying yesterday, maybe it was because there was always a risk of cars coming together at turn 1 and the middle of the pack was the worst place to be, maybe it was because he could already hear the questions he was going to be asked after the race about how shit his car supposedly was.

“You okay?” Mike opened his umbrella to act as a parasol, as forecast the weather was bright sunny skies with temperatures in the high 20s. The race was probably going at least be a two stop as a result.

James closed his eyes and allowed himself two slow, deep breaths.

“Yeah, I’m okay.” He fixed his sunglasses over his eyes, accepted the cool vest from Mike when it was offered, and strode up the grid to take his place for the pre-race anthem. “Hey.” Either by fate or pure coincidence, his place card was next to Sophie’s

“Hey James.” They’d both done Richard and Katie proud and were stood in place about half a minute early.

“Go well today.” He spoke with his hands clasped behind his back, looking straight down the track towards the first corner.

“Thanks, same to you.” Her puzzled tone was likely because they’d already said that to each other after the strategy briefing. “I promise to take it easy round the last corner this time.”

Sophie had unintentionally put it in the wall right at the start of third practice yesterday thanks to a nasty kick of oversteer. And while she had been fine and the car was not as damaged as it could have been, it had put everyone a little bit on edge regardless.

Their conversation was cut off when the rest of the drivers came in to take their places, and when the anthem ended they barely had time to clap each other on the shoulder before making the mad dash back down to their grid slots. Barely ten minutes later James found himself at the end of the formation lap, waiting for the start lights to go out.

He, and Sophie, crucially made it through the first few corners cleanly – unlike Watkins who had his right rear tyre punctured by one of the Alpines coming out of turn 7. But James wasn’t sure if he would of preferred that or the huge amount of understeer he had going through Degners 1 and 2.

The car wasn’t completely undriveable, but it wasn’t that far off it.

James pitted early for his first stop on lap twelve thank to some hideous graining on his front tyres, and he had to jam on the breaks coming down the pitlane to avoid driving into the back of one of the Mercs when they exited their pitbox.

“Who was that?!” James grumbled down the radio as he rejoined the track in P13.

“That was Pavard, we’re speaking to the FIA about it.” Paul quickly added that James’ outlap was critical to end discussion on the matter and get his driver to focus.

James did as he was told and got his head down, and had moved up to P8 once the first round of stops were done with. While it was a grand total of one place up on his qualifying result, it was still better than dropping to outside the points. Though his fresh hard tires were only marginally better in terms of grip.

“This is going to be a long race.” James couldn’t help it as he allowed himself one small vent on the radio.

“We know James,” Paul quickly replied. “You’re doing a good job so far let’s keep up this pace.”

Normally Suzuka was a beautiful circuit to drive round, one of James’ favourites even, but it was hard to enjoy each passing lap when the car’s handling was so all over the place. Dropping down to P9 after his second stop added a small insult to injury, as was the radio from Paul about ten laps later telling him Sophie had to make a third stop for a slow puncture, and that he needed to avoid driving on the kerbs wherever possible. James knew then and there he would be kissing 8th place goodbye.

He was almost relieved to cross the finish line, a full three seconds behind Pavard despite the fact he’d served a drive through penalty earlier for the pitlane incident.

As James shifted the car into fuel saving mode and went off line to pick up as many tyre marbles as possible he could already picture the scene in the garage. The dejected looks and hands being ran down faces to the fact that all of everyone’s hard work had only amounted to two meagre points.

(Sophie had finished in 11th, having lost a drag race to the line against Sato).

James just couldn’t understand how things had gone so wrong from last year to now.

“I know that this weekend had been incredibly difficult for everyone,” Martin said, kicking off the debrief to a deafening silence. “But I’m not going to stand here and yell at everyone to do better because we all know that we’re better than this. We’re going to get our heads down, and learn exactly where we failed this weekend, and put it towards next year’s car.”

If the MCL24 car wasn’t at least capable of doing what it was told, James wasn’t sure what he was going to do with himself.

On the flight home James was already planning the bike ride he was going to make as soon as he was able. Normally he went for a run round the Monaco harbour to work off the jetlag, but after today he knew he needed something stronger to shake off his frustrations. He hadn’t ridden through the mountains near the French border for a while, and Mike agreed that it would be a good idea.

Out of the small windows in the private jet James got a look at the gorgeous bright orange sunset over the clouds, and he took a picture for memory sake before slowly pulling down the blind.

He deliberately pushed all thoughts of whether or not it was a good idea to see through his McLaren contract out of his mind. James knew he wasn’t in the right frame of mind, and the best thing for him would be to copy Mike and pass out snuggled into one of the plush seats instead. The blanket loosely lying on his knees being optional.

James smiled at the text message from Chloe saying how much she loved the cherry blossom detailing he had on his helmet for the weekend, when he messaged back that he was thinking of running something cowboy inspired for the next race in Austin she replied with a frantic set of messages saying she’d disown him instantly.

Tell Sophie sorry about her puncture, Mum and El said have a safe trip back to Monte Carlo. Love you xxx

Right after James had boarded the jet, Paul had texted to say that the team’s flight out of Tokyo was delayed, and almost an hour into his flight James still hadn’t heard anything from his engineer. He closed the conversation with Chloe since the Hewitts were probably about to tuck into their Sunday lunch, and he tapped his index finger against the side of his phone before going into WhatsApp and scrolled to find Sophie in his chat history.

He typed out and backspaced three different messages before eventually hitting send.

Hope you’re all on the plane by now, Chloe and Elouise wanted to say sorry about your race. Safe travels.
